David, =20

Thanks for the pictures.  Have you done a full assembly fit check= ?  Have you done any ground runs?  Will the flywheel fit with the= flat washers installed between Tracy's acapter and flywheel, or will those= have to be left out?  

Mark  - on the verge of ordering a prolite flywheel.

Here are some pictures of the machined= flywheel that Kelly turned us on to (ACT prolite).  Weight is now und= er 9 lbs.  I think it is a good balance between weight and beefyness.&= nbsp; Someone with better access to a CNC could make the mods quick and eas= y, and the mods to that start/addapter plate are pretty easy.

Here i= s the front side.
